I've been dealing with melasma for years, and my dermatologist recently prescribed Hydroquinone 4% Cream. I've started using it, and I'm curious to know if anyone else has had success with this treatment. I'm especially interested in hearing about any side effects you might have experienced and how you dealt with them. Did you notice any significant changes in your skin after using it for a few weeks? I'm looking forward to hearing your experiences and any tips you might have! I've been using it for a week now, and I'm not sure if I'm seeing any improvements yet. I've had a bit of stinging and redness, but nothing too severe. I'm hopeful that these side effects will subside as my skin gets used to the cream.
